After rebirth, I became Tokyo Sentimental

Chapter 53 53. Big talk, bring million
"Xiao Si, why are you so slow?"

Chitsuki Fujitani also saw Harano Tsukasa standing at the door of the room, and immediately realized the awkward situation, so she quickly spoke to break the current silence.

She was just joking.

After all, the blood stains on the bed sheets are not necessarily the result of the first time, they are more likely to be caused by menstruation.

In Japan, physiology classes on the male and female body structures are taught in elementary schools, and basically no one is illiterate about such things. Even if the membrane is not seriously damaged, the internal connective tissue may be torn due to daily strenuous exercise and sudden impact.

So it is normal that there is no blood the first time.

What's more, when Chitsuki Fujitani saw blood stains on the bed sheet that Yuko Shimizu had spread on the sofa, she just thought that she had leaked something during her period.

Talking about having kids...

It's just a joke from a middle-aged woman.

Because in her circle of friends, Yuko Shimizu is a relatively special "weirdo". Apart from her, everyone else, regardless of whether they are currently divorced or have a happy family, has married early and had children, and some even have grandchildren.

It would be embarrassing if my teenage son heard this kind of joke.

Especially since Yuko doesn't seem to be considered a woman.

Yuan Ye Si came back to his senses after hearing the voice, and realized that his mother was trying to ease the embarrassment just now. After coughing, he said calmly, "There are always cars cutting in on the road."

"Have you parked your car? Don't get a traffic violation ticket from the traffic police. I heard the fine is 15000 yen a time."

Chitsuki Fujitani responded first, then turned her head to look at Yuko Shimizu who was tucking the bed sheet tightly with her hands, and asked as if nothing had happened: "Yuko, don't you want to wash the sheets? Go to the bathroom first, I'll go see how the soup you made is going."

"Okay... I'll go first..." Yuko Shimizu whispered with her cheeks flushed, not even daring to look up and around.

Fujitani Chitsuki was somewhat surprised and confused when she saw this.

In her impression, her friend never seemed to be as shy as a 17 or 18-year-old girl. In the past, it would have been normal for her to show it openly and tell her son that he would have to wash his wife in the future.

but now…

Why are you so shy all of a sudden?
It's like a girl who has just started dating and is still in the passionate love stage is seen with her naked butt.

Although she felt strange, Chitsuki Fujitani would not expose her son's shortcomings in front of him. She turned her eyes to Harano Tsukasa's face and said, "Don't just stand there. Your aunt Yuko has made a lot of side dishes. They are all in the warming cabinet. Help your mother to serve them."

"No problem." Harano Tsukasa also felt that Shimizu Yuko was not in a good state. He was afraid that if he delayed any longer, the truth would be exposed and his mother would be heartbroken like she was being electrocuted, so he agreed very readily and walked towards the kitchen as soon as he answered.

It has to be said that with more than 40 years of experience, even a person with no talent in cooking can, under the pressure of life, develop cooking skills that taste good.

Tonkotsu soup, also known as pork bone broth, is basically used as the base soup for ramen to enhance the flavor. But since it is a soup made in the morning, it is meant to be drunk purely. The corn and pork bone soup that Yuko Shimizu cooked for three hours is very traditional in ingredients, including chopped shanks, diced corn, carrots, and shiitake mushrooms, and then a handful of green onions for garnish.

Overall, it is not difficult to bring out the deliciousness of the soup. The only skill required is probably the cooking time.

In addition to the soup, there were several small plates of pickles.

Japanese cuisine has always been about preserving the original flavor of ingredients. In fact, it is about enjoying the umami taste. But as we all know, people will easily lose strength without salt, so pickles came into being.

Pickles are pickled vegetables. For example, the Seven Lucky Gods specially made by Yuko Shimizu is a traditional Japanese pickled vegetable. It was originally made with seven ingredients: eggplant, radish, turnip, basil, dang beans and wild angelica, so it is called the Seven Lucky Gods. It tastes sweet.

Chitsuki Fujitani was not shy with her friend of several decades. Even when she brought her son to eat and drink, she treated him like she was at home. She took a few bites of food with her chopsticks and drank a mouthful of soup. She squinted her eyes and praised him a few times. After a few words, she changed the topic to something she cared about: "Speaking of which, Yuko, have you solved the problem you told me about last time?"

"Trouble..." Shimizu Yuko subconsciously looked at Harano Tsukasa, and the news photos she saw on the phone interface last night appeared in her mind. After hesitating for a moment, her fingertips couldn't help but clench the solid wooden chopsticks: "Solved."

"I heard the details from Mika and Yuki. It was really unlucky to run into such a disgusting man. But fortunately, it was finally resolved."

Chitsuki Fujitani said with empathy.

"Life is always full of ups and downs." Yuko Shimizu sighed slightly and expressed her feelings casually.

"That's true. I haven't been to Tokyo for a long time. Even my son quit his job before anyone knew about it. Some heartless kid didn't even bother to report it to his mother. It's really heartbreaking."

It seemed that she noticed that there was something wrong with Shimizu Yuko's mood changes. After all, it would take a while for anyone to recover from such a thing. Fujitani Chitsuki did not ask any more questions and instead shifted the focus of the conversation to her son who was drinking soup beside her.

She turned around as if nothing had happened and said with a smile, "By the way, Ah Si, what are you doing recently?"

“I’m doing something related to venture capital.”

Yuan Ye Si put down his bowl and chopsticks and answered seriously.

In fact, he had expected to be asked.

When he transferred 5 million to his mother, he was already prepared to be interrogated. After all, reality is not a game, and money will not fall from the sky like a birthday wish. He is not so tasteless as to just enjoy himself with money and ignore his parents.

So how to explain it.

Yuan Ye Si also had a plan in place. If it was a girlfriend, she might not care about the source of the money, but only care about how much she could spend. However, as a parent, they would normally worry about whether their child would be in danger if something unexpected happened.

Suddenly rich and suddenly poor.

Obviously, they are all experiencing sudden changes.

Chitsubaki Fujitani, who knew that her son had been traumatized by his failed business venture, was shocked when she heard the term again: "Venture capital? Is it risky?"

"Fortunately, there is basically no risk. The main reason is that I am following my previous boss in this field, and we have a good personal relationship. So it is better to say that others are helping me make money rather than me doing venture capital."

Yuanye Si thought that this reason would put his mother at ease, but her expression became even more serious.

"Boss?" Chitsuki Fujitani suddenly recalled the scenes in soap operas she had watched where various pretty boys were seduced by middle-aged rich women for wealth. She felt quite happy when she put herself in the situation, but when she thought that this might happen to her son, she suddenly felt a lump in her throat and couldn't sit still. After holding it in for a long time, she tentatively asked, "Is it a boy or a girl?"

"Female boss." Harano Tsukasa replied.

"How old are you?" Chitsuki Fujitani's heart skipped a beat when she heard that, and she asked quickly.

"Thirty years old."

"Ah? Why, why are you so young?"

"How big do you think it is?"

"I thought…"

Yuan Ye Si couldn't help laughing when he saw his mother's hesitation. He also knew what she was thinking at the moment: "What are you thinking about? Do you have to be old enough to be a grandmother for you to think it's normal?"

"That's not the case. The main thing is why would others be willing to help you make money." Fujitani Chitsuki said as she carefully observed her son's expression. She felt relieved when she saw that he was not nervous and had no signs of lying. She knew her son quite well. Even if he lied, he would not tell her, and he seemed to have guessed what she was thinking.

After thinking about it again, she still couldn't figure out the reason. Fujitani Chitsuba frowned slightly and said to herself:
"You're not that handsome, by definition."

"Do you look down on your son so much?"

"It's not that I look down on you, but I know my own strengths and weaknesses. You came out of my belly, how can you be any stronger than me?"

"But I think you're beautiful."

"Stop flattering!"

"Anyway, my life is normal now. Quitting my job gives me more freedom, and I can make more money. I won't tell you the exact amount, but it's easier for you to retire in Tokyo."

"You are so arrogant, bring me 100 million!"

"..."

Harano Tsukasa only had about 30 million yen in liquid cash, but he could actually come up with 100 million yen. Moreover, his mother's words reminded him that it didn't matter who the 100 million yen investment quota was given to, but why couldn't it be given to his mother instead?

It's just that my mother doesn't have a high level of education and doesn't have much management experience. If I really give her 100 million yen to invest in opening a store, I'm afraid she will refuse.

During the conversation, Harano Tsukasa thought about the possibility of this matter, but put it aside in a blink of an eye. Compared with the endless money and rewards, he actually thought that these few relaxing moments were more valuable, so he focused on chatting with his mother, from the time he wore open-crotch pants as a child to stepping on cow dung on the way to school.

The atmosphere became more and more harmonious.

Harano Tsukasa and Fujitani Chitsuki were chatting harmoniously.

On the contrary, Yuko Shimizu looked more like a guest from afar. She sat quietly drinking soup, completely losing her usual enthusiasm and generosity. Instead, she watched the mother and son reminiscing and chatting, not like the host here.

Of course, the sensitive Fujitani Chitsuki noticed her uncharacteristic behavior.

But before she had time to show her concern.

I found something more noteworthy.

Because she saw a circle of light bruises on the edge of Harano Tsukasa's clavicle, which was basically covered by the collar of his coat. Chitsuki Fujitani, who happened to have studied nursing when she was young, was sure that this was not something that could be scratched out by hand, but was a mechanical purpura in medicine.

and so…

She suddenly spoke out of the blue.

"Ah Si, do you have a girlfriend?"

"No."

"Then why does the purple spot on your left clavicle, the one covered by your collar, look so much like... a hickey?"

With the crisp sound of the porcelain spoon hitting each other, Shimizu Yuko's slightly red lips opened slightly, her pretty cheeks showed a dull look, and she seemed to have lost her soul.
